I'm going to break down into points form for easy understanding.

1. Lan connection doesn't work on my desktop but it works on my laptop. I don't use a router. Lan connection icon in my desktop will always have a "disconnect" icon. Not sure how to describe it.

2. Speakers no sound when plugged into the audio port at the back of my desktop. I plug in the front of the desktop(the headphone jack) then the speakers got sound.

3. Since LAN connection doesnt seems to work on my desktop, I use a mobile broadband stick and plug in the USB port at the front of my desktop. Now..at the front there are 2 USB ports. If I plug in another device at the other USB port while I'm using the mobile broadband stick and its connected, the internet connection will suddenly stop working. I got to plug out the other USB device and reconnect the mobile broadband connection.

I'm suspecting my motherboard spoilt liao..anyone?

Yup, it seems some components of the mobo are spoilt or unstable. What model is it and how old?

Instead of answering what the 2 persons asked, you jumped into a question which is totally dependent on the answers you have to reply them. If not, we can't tell you what shop to "repair". Because repairing takes place at taiwan, malaysia etc.

Dude..I don't have the desktop with me now , how am I supposed to give the specs? By the time I get hold of my desktop which is a few weeks later, I might as well send to a shop for the person to troubleshoot.

That explains why I was looking for recommendations for shop. I was not being rude nor was I asking for locations overseas to repair.

How old is the desktop? Sounds like motherboard kicking the bucket soonish.
